Does this stop interbreeding with wild stocks because the triploid fish do not mature? Does this even prevent genetic mixing with native fish? Nancy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: David & Alison Webster <dwebster@glinx.com> To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca Sent: Sunday, November 4, 2012 1:08:28 PM Subject: Re: [NatureNS] re West coast:Fw: Farmed Salmon Thanks Dave P. & John. Good to learn about an objective study & hear from the voice of experience. Start small is sound advice when doing something new. Perhaps the underlying problem is that both the wild fishery and salmon farming can be too darn profitable ! A friend of Alison's from the Shetland Islands lamented about 10 years ago that it was difficult to keep young men in school there when they can earn enough in the fishery (no need for high school) to retire by 30 or so.
